They are so expensive in the shops.<br />I have been doing my usual frugal things this week- hanging the washing on the line, making lunches, baking snacks, giving my son a haircut and shopping at my beloved Aldi.<br />I think I'm going to get stuck into making some cards tomorrow. Your cards are gorgeous!<br />Enjoy the weekend, Regards, Stephanie.Stephaniehttp://teaspoonsandtinsel.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122163157306498894.post-90511105896574838572017-02-18T09:56:52.038+11:002017-02-18T09:56:52.038+11:00Some seem to think that frugal and deprivation go ...Some seem to think that frugal and deprivation go hand in hand. To me frugal is eating good, having everything I really need to lead a full life and being prepared for tomorrow. Those strawberries look so good. I am looking forward to summer and fresh veggies and fruit. We have blueberries---which reminds me- I better get eating on my freezer supply. Have a great weekend.Delorisenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122163157306498894.post-26124902526417490582017-02-18T09:44:47.607+11:002017-02-18T09:44:47.607+11:00Beautiful jam Wendy!

I'll be getting it ready for Autumn planting not far away. We achieved a few frugal things this week:<br />* a roast dinner and homemade white choc cheesecake for valentines day<br />* used loyalty card to buy chicken for roasting :)<br />* running dishwasher and wash machine when sun on our solar panels<br />* all clothes washed in cold water and line dried in the sun. <br />* filled up car at lower petrol price...thankfully, it's come down!<br />* started knitting two lovely washcloths for part of a gift for a baby <br /> shower (I'm using organic cotton from my stash.) My friend is having <br /> twins!<br />Have lovely weekend, Wendy. <br />Meg:)<br />Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11573371198907761962noreply@blogger.com
